✍️ Match Preview
Analysis & Preview
Osasuna travel to Estadi Mallorca Son Moix to take on Mallorca in La Liga (matchday 18). The game is scheduled for Thursday 21 December 2023 at 20:30 UK time.
Recent Form
Across their last 10 games, Mallorca have gone 1W 6D 3L — a 0.90 PPG return. Last five: L D D W D. They are averaging 0.50 goals per game and conceding 0.80 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.80 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes.
Mallorca's home record over their last 10 home games: 3W 6D 1L (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.90 goals scored and 0.50 conceded per game. 6 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home. At home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle. Their home PPG of 1.50 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.90 — Mallorca are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Osasuna stand at 3W 3D 4L — 1.20 PPG. Last five: D L D D W. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.60 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
Osasuna's away record over their last 10 away games: 3W 1D 6L (1.00 PPG). Away from home they average 1.20 goals scored and 1.90 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form comparison is too close to call — 0.90 PPG (Mallorca) versus 1.20 (Osasuna). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
Head to Head
The H2H picture is flat: the 4 H2H matches we hold have produced 1 wins for Mallorca, 2 for Osasuna and 1 draw. Form and model data should carry more weight here.
The 4 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 31 Mar 2023, ended Mallorca 0–0 Osasuna — a draw.
The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.
In-Play Data
Mallorca trading profile (last 55 games, 27 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 48% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 74% of the time; of the 15 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 33%; BTTS occurs in 37% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 18% of games (home games); they fail to score in 38% of games.
Osasuna trading profile (last 55 games, 27 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 74% of the time; BTTS occurs in 48% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 37% of games (away games); they fail to score in 34% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Mallorca 38% versus Osasuna 46%; no strong lean in either direction. Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Mallorca 29% | Osasuna 38%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Mallorca 1.16 xG and Osasuna 0.84 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Mallorca attack 0.704 / defence 0.733 | Osasuna attack 1.034 / defence 1.190. League average goals — home 1.387 / away 1.109. Mallorca's attack rating of 0.704 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.16. Mallorca have a tight defence (rating 0.733), which is pulling Osasuna's projected output down. Data: built from Mallorca's last 55 games and Osasuna's last 55.
Result probabilities: Mallorca 40% | Draw 36% | Osasuna 24%. Fair-value odds: Mallorca 2.47 | Draw 2.78 | Osasuna 4.23. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 36% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 32% | BTTS Yes probability 42% | Total xG 2.00. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 68% probability — total xG of 2.00 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 58% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Mallorca at 40% — marginal model lean. With a 36% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Mallorca offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.00 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 68% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 58% on No. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Mallorca 30% (last 10 home games) | Osasuna 60% (last 10 away games).

📈 Form Insight
Where Both Sides Stand
Mallorca's recent record stands at 16W 17D 22L from 55 games, a 1.18 PPG return, with L-D-D-W-D in the last five.
Osasuna, meanwhile, have gone 20W 12D 23L across 55 games — 1.31 PPG, with D-L-D-D-W in their last five.
Form-wise this is close to level: Mallorca on 1.18 PPG, Osasuna on 1.31. Other factors will likely decide this one more than recent results.
Home Ground vs the Road
At home specifically, Mallorca have managed 11W 11D 5L from their last 27 home games — 1.63 PPG in front of their own supporters. That's noticeably better than their 1.18 PPG overall — Mallorca are a different proposition at home than their general record suggests.
Osasuna's away record stands at 7W 8D 12L across their last 27 away games, a 1.07 PPG haul.
Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Mallorca come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.
The Goals Picture
Mallorca are averaging 0.93 goals scored and 1.15 conceded per game recently; Osasuna are on 1.02 scored and 1.24 conceded.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Mallorca beat Osasuna 3-2 at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix, Regular Season - 18, in the La Liga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Mallorca 1.16 xG and Osasuna 0.84 xG, a combined 2.00. The scoreboard read 3-2 for 5 actual goals. Mallorca beat their projection by 1.8 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Osasuna outscored their 0.84 projection by 1.2. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Mallorca attack 0.70 / defence 0.73 against Osasuna attack 1.03 / defence 1.19, drawn from 55/55 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Mallorca 40% | Draw 36% | Osasuna 24%, with Mallorca to win its most likely call at 40%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 32%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 62% and landed. Over 3.5 was 14% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 42% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 34% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Mallorca 29%, Osasuna 38%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 42%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Mallorca's trading profile (55 games, 27 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 38% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 34% of the time, and conceded here.
Osasuna's trading profile (55 games, 27 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Mallorca 1.18 PPG, Osasuna 1.31 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Mallorca win broke the near-deadlock. Mallorca (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.00 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 2 against a 0.63 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Osasuna (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 0.89 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.30 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
